Re: UUNET instability?

[Chris Pace]

Is there a way to notify UUNET of the problem ?
(I know they are problably aware, but it would make me feel better)
Since I am not a UUNET customer they will not even speak to me. My Customers
are screaming at me and I have to open trouble tickets with at least 5
providers.
I have to explain to my customers what is going on and I am powerless.

 Yes, we are peering with UUNet in too many cities a cross USA and all the
 Network is a messed up, also I found some BGP session cleared by UUNet
 peering routers.

 Anyone else seeing routing instability through UUNET or have any more
 details?  I saw a significant drop in my inbound and outbound traffic to
 them around 10:00AM EDT.  UUNET has a prompt on their phone menus about
 network instability, but didn't elaborate.  Their NOC doesn't have any
 more details as of yet that they're passing along.

Re: Route Collector

[Chris Pace]

Yes, it is forwarding bgp routes. However, it has no serial lines connected.
Do you think it is causing unnecessary traffic ?
Thanks

 ### casually decided to expound upon Todd Suiter [EMAIL PROTECTED] the
 ### following thoughts about Route Collector:

 CP Is it common or a good idea to have a route collector in a
 CP datacenter/enterprise environment ? We have 1 router that just
collects
 CP routes using bgp and ospf, then set all servers to use it as the
default
 CP gateway. Is this practical or am I making more work for myself ?

 So it's doing more than just collecting routes?  It's also forwarding
 traffic?  Is it carrying a full table of eBGP routes too?
